Planning Your Students' Museum Visit

  • Selecting an exhibition To find out more about our exhibitions, go to www.nus.edu.sg/museums/exhibitions.htm
  • Selecting the type of program The available programs are listed on this page.
  • Museum Location and Opening Hours Go to www.nus.edu.sg/museums/information_getting.htm
  • Planning for the trip
    • Discuss with our education officers the objectives of your trip. This may help you to decide the type of program to select for your students.
    • Understand how the program that you have selected will be conducted and brief your students.
    • For guided tours, the maximum recommended group size is 20. Once the student to guide ratio becomes too large, some students tend to lose interest and wander off.
    • Plan to be at the museum for about one hour.
    • Complete the booking form (available at our website) and submit to the education officer.
  • Briefing your students before the trip
    • Refrain from touching the artworks. Dirt, oil and moisture from our hands can hasten the process of deterioration for art pieces. The pieces may also be accidentally damaged by objects like rings or finger nails.
    • No running, pushing and playing in the galleries as these actions put the exhibits at risk
    • Avoid using the wall panels, showcases or exhibits as backing for writing notes. If students require a hard surface for writing, please ask the guide for clip-boards.
    • Speak softly in the galleries to allow other visitors to enjoy the exhibitions.
    • No food and drinks in the galleries.
    • Flash photography is not allowed.
  • After the trip
    Please complete the feedback form and submit to us. Your input helps towards further customization and improvement of our programs.
